TN presenting this pamphlet to owners of United 
Steam Hydraulic Forging Presses, to facilitate the 
ordering of repair or duplicate parts, we are furnishing 
drawings, photographs and data of parts of the press 
which we have heretofore been more or less reluctant 
to let out of our hands. 

To safeguard against any promiscuous distribution, 
we are furnishing but one pamphlet to a customer, 
each pamphlet bearing the number of the press or 
presses which we have built for them. 

One copy printed for each customer. Do 
not destroy or mutilate as we will be unable 
to furnish duplicate copies.

Instructions for Maintenance 

— of— 

Steam-Hydraulic Forging Presses 

single frame type 

150 & 300 tons capacity 

All parts of OPERATING MECHANISM to be 
oiled regularly with engine oil, to insure smooth easy 
operation without excessive wear. 

The OIL PUMP must be kept well supplied with 
clean cylinder oil. 

It is important that the WATER charged into the 
frame be clean and free from grit, with the addition as 
often as necessary of a quantity of suitable HY- 
DRAULIC LUBRICANT, such as soluble oil, cut- 
ting compound or other soapy solution free from acid. 

Special attention must be paid to the cleanliness 
and lubrication of the HYDRAULIC RAMS. Inat- 
tention to this matter will result in rapid destruction 
of the packing leathers. Care must be taken when re- 
moving or installing packings, not to injure the lower 
edge of the packing groove or the surface of the rams. 

Lock Nuts on valve stems and adjustable rods 
should be kept tight. Glands on steam valve 

spindles must be tightened no more than necessary 
to prevent leakage. 

The nuts on the HYDRAULIC VALVE SPIN- 
DLE must be 1/16" clear of the lever when the valve 
is seated. 

Keep all keys, bolts and nuts tight. 

Remember that care and attention save repairs and 
stoppages.

Instructions for Maintenance 

— of— 

Steam-Hydraulic Forging Presses 

FOUR COLUMN TYPE 

All parts of OPERATING MECHANISM must 
be oiled regularly with engine oil to ensure smooth and 
easy operation without excessive wear. 

The OIL PUMP must be kept well supplied with 
CLEAN cylinder oil. 

The PRESS COLUMNS are best lubricated with 
"Hot- roll-neck" grease. 

It is important that the water charged into the pre- 
filler tank be clean and free from grit, with the addition 
as often as necessary of a quantity of suitable HY- 
DRAULIC LUBRICANT, such as soluble oil, cutting 
compound or other soapy solution free from acid. 

Special attention must be paid to cleanliness and 
lubrication of the HYDRAULIC RAMS. Inattention 
to this matter will result in rapid destruction of the 
packing leathers. Care must be taken when removing 
or installing packings to avoid injuring the edges of the 
BRONZE RETAINING RINGS or the surface of 
the rams. 

The COLUMN NUTS must be tightened up by 
turning a steam jet in the drilled holes in top and bot- 
tom of columns and tightening up nuts while columns 
are hot. 

Columns of our later type having shoulders against 
which to tighten the base and entablature, are tightened 
by inserting a steam jet in the hollow ends of the col- 
umns and checking up the nuts while columns are hot. 

If the column nuts are allowed to work loose, risk 
of breakage is run, due to the columns taking the load 
unequally. 

Lock nuts on valve stems and adjustable rods 
should be kept tight. Gland nuts on steam valve 
spindles must be tightened no more than necessary 
to prevent leakage. 

The nuts on the HYDRAULIC VALVE spindle 
must be 1/16" or more clear of the lever when the valve 
is seated. Keep all keys, bolts and nuts tight. REMEM- 
BER that care and attention saves repairs and stoppages.
